From the beginning of September this year, the Tricity branch of the APA Wojciechowski Architects studio will be managed by Anna Essler-Lango, and she will be supported by Karol Wyrzykowski. They will both become partners in the company.

The changes are related to the planned departure of Dżafar Bajraszewski, who managed the Tricity branch of the studio for nine years. Dżafar will finish his mission in the company at the end of August and, together with Piotr Steckiewicz, they will start independent business activities.

We are grateful to Dżafar and Piotr for their many years of contribution to many of our projects and co-creation of our Tricity branch, we respect the decision to go our separate ways and appreciate their commitment and responsibility in the process of handing over the reins. We have been working on making this happen smoothly for many months: Anna Essler-Lango has been involved in the management activities of our Tricity branch for a long time.  We remain in friendly relations with Dżafar and plan to cooperate - said Szymon Wojciechowski, President of the Management Board and Architect-Partner at APA Wojciechowski Architects.

Anna Essler-Lango is an experienced architect, graduate of the Faculty of Architecture and Urban Planning of the Wrocław University of Science and Technology. Since 2019, she has been working in the Tricity office of APA Wojciechowski Architects, until now she worked as the Lead Architect. Anna worked, among others, on the designs of office and multi-functional buildings: DOKI-Office in Gdańsk, Nova Silesia in Katowice and B10 in Wrocław. She was also involved in residential projects, such as Riverview II in Gdańsk, feasibility studies and competitions.

Karol Wyrzykowski, a graduate of the Faculty of Architecture and Urban Planning of the Gdańsk University of Technology, has been working in the Tricity office of APA Wojciechowski Architects since 2016. He led many projects and also worked as a BIM coordinator. Karol will be responsible for the technical side of the activities of the Tricity branch of the studio.

The new role in our studio is a great honor for me. I'm glad it was entrusted to a woman. I believe that many exciting design challenges await us, which we will implement together with the APA_by_ the_sea team. I especially appreciate the cooperation with Dżafar and Piotr so far;  their support allowed me to gain the experience necessary to develop in the company. I support them in implementing their upcoming plans and I believe that together with Karol Wyrzykowski and the entire team, we will maintain the current success of the branch. – said Anna Essler-Lango, Member of the Management Board and Architect-Partner at APA Wojciechowski Architects, head of the Tricity branch of the studio.

We know that such a planned and smoothly implemented change will give a new impetus to the development of both our over 20-person seaside branch and the entire company (we have some good news that we will announce soon) and we are also counting on cooperation and joint volleyball on the beach in Gdynia with Dżafar and Piotr. - added Szymon Wojciechowski.
